A tree is 12 m tall and casts an 8 m long shadow. At the same time, a flag pole casts a 100 m long shadow. How long is the flag pole?
Correct Answer: Description for Correct answer:
Because, 8 m shadow means original height = 12 m.
Therefore, 1 m shadow means original height = \( \Large \frac{12}{8} \) m
Therefore, 100 m shadow means original height
= \( \Large \frac{12}{8} \) *100m = \( \Large \frac{6}{4} \times 100 \)
= \( \Large 6 \times 25 \) = 150 m
